    Hey guys
    Parents house was previously externally insulated. They don't like the colour of the render anymore and are looking to paint or even dry dash it, but wondering is either option possible?

    There was an old tub of the render in the shed and its acrylic if that makes a difference.
    If its possible is there any specific paint that needs to be used or process followed?

    Outside paint like Dulux weather shield etc is acrylic. You shouldn’t have any issues. I have seen people houses with outside insulation

    Depends on the render system used originally. Can you contact the original installer and ask?

    Tried that previously but the company seems to be no more, all i do know was that it was acrylic from a left over tub that used to be in the shed
